[#R375] The best-known ten-point area is 0.0465374195825..., with global optimality open

claim. The exact Comellas–Yebra construction proves Δ₁₀ ≥ 0.04653741958254177256.... No checked source proves a matching unrestricted upper bound, so the exact value of Δ₁₀ remains open.

1Summary

Sudermann-Merx, arXiv:2603.11107v2, gives globally certified solutions for \(n\le9\). Section 7 says that extending certification to \(n=10\) remains open and will require substantial computation. Appendix A, Table 11 gives the exact Comellas–Yebra ten-point construction and identifies it as best known.

Monji, Modir, and Kocuk, arXiv:2512.14505v1, also leave \(n=10\) open. Their reported ten-point run uses a restricted model with two unproved assumptions: exactly two points on each edge and \(y_5\le1/2\). The solver reached no matching upper bound within one day.

Supported evidence. Recorded scope: the published certification status of the unrestricted ten-point Heilbronn triangle problem in the unit square as audited on 2026-07-28.

2Evidence

Evidence package: source only

A verification source is cited. This record has no executable replay attached.

Verification source: arxiv.org ↗, Sudermann-Merx, arXiv:2603.11107v2, Section 1.4 on p. 3, Section 7 on p. 17, and Appendix A/Table 11 on p. 19; Monji-Modir-Kocuk, arXiv:2512.14505v1, Conjecture 1 and final n=10 experiment

3Overview

The sources therefore support an exact best-known construction and an open unrestricted upper-bound problem. The two structural assumptions belong to the Monji-Modir-Kocuk restricted computation.
